FAQ
The following is the index of FAQ. Before you start, make sure you have installed all prerequisites. Check our website www.hammersuite.com for more details. You're welcome to contact us for any uncertainty.

1. After installing Tcl/Tk, an error still pops out suggesting lack of Tcl/Tk libraries when initilializing HAMMER Suite.

2. All components return with error information in less than 1-2 seconds. No outputs are generated.

3. The RAVENS map of ventricles is blank after the whole pipeline is complete.

4. Skull-stripping has finished. But cerebellum-removal aborts without corrent output.

5. Linux versions can work, but Windows versions alwayas fail from the very beginning.

6. When the speedup version of HAMMER registration on Windows is tried, severall DLLs (i.e., libmmd.dll) are missing.

Please copy "libtcl8.5.so" and "libtk8.5.so" to the directory of HAMMER Suite. Different versions of Tcl/Tk are also applicable.

This mistake commonly indicates that PATH needs to be specified. HAMMER Suite executes scripts/binaries in its subdirectory /tools (/win32 for windows), which must be manually added to the environament variable PATH.

It's normal in current releases. We haven't provided functions for labeling ventricles in the segmentation part. Usually ventricle labeling is more challenging and complicated than segmentation of WM, GM, and CSF. For convenience, ventricles are labeld as CSF in HAMMER Suite. Please contact us if you need a solution for ventricle segmentation.

In general, all filters are based on the same design. So if one can work, the other ones should be fine. However, we get feedbacks that cerebellum-removal is more vulnable. The only reason we have located is point to the size of memory. This problem has only occured on PCs. But after changing to more powerful machines, no problems have been reported from users.

In this case, please check the installation path on Windows. In particular, no blank is allowed in the path of HAMMER Suite, since it follows strict conventions as in Linux. So the software would fail if it was installed in "My Documents" on Windows. Please move it to some other place (i.e. C:\Hammer) instead.

We utilize Intel® compilers for better speed performance of HAMMER. These DLLs are generally associated with features provided from the compiler. In this case, you could install the compiler in order to acquire all required DLLs. Visit http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-compilers/ to get access to a trial version. Even if the compiler expires, the DLLs will still be working.
